Thema: Installation on a Dreambox settopbox (Gelesen 80984 mal)

I'm using VTI6 which has given me much beter results in the past the e.g. OpenPli.I did update the drivers to the version of 10 March 2015 but that didn't help.Good to hear the unit worked at your end, therefore it must be a software/driver issue.

I'll put on VTI8 and OpenPli and see whether that will work

A clean install of VTI8 seems to have been the solution. Perhaps old residual install information was in the way. Important part is that is works now. So what I did was:

Unfortunatly I was happy to early. Seems when I had two streams, they were comming from the same transponder, most likely through one tuner.

The new tuner will not function, not even when I remove the old tuner and it is the only configured tuner. I do not seem to be able to get a working picture out of this new tuner.

The Sundtek control center shows both sticks, OPenPli tuner configuration shows both sticks (I have a picture to proof that: www.bajor.nl/scc.jpg )Changing the 'transmission way' does not change a thingWhen I stream with the old stick and try to watch TV with the new stick it claims that it cannot find the channel (afstemmen mislukt in Dutch). As if the stick is working fine from the Linux side but is not able to convert the cable signal into a TV signal.

Tonight I will connect the new tuner to my windows computer and see whether or not it works.

I hooked the two tuners up to a Vu+Solo2, with a much faster processor.Whenever the system tries to access the new tuner, it keeps saying 'loading'The blue led on the tuner is on, it is visible in both VTI and OpenPli.

It feels like the driver is not working with the 3rd generation tuner.As it is brand new: it is possible to swap it for a 2nd generation tuner?

Ok, in your case if you mix an old and a new tuner; use the new tuner for scanning that will get you the correct frequencies into the channel list.The old tuner will also have no problem with that. This is a little bit related about the Ziggo frequency list submitted via their network, a very special case.

Thanks to the wonderful work of the Sundtek Support, who spend over an hour digging into the problem, the solution was found.

It appears the new MediaTV Pro III has a somewhat smaller bandwith to lock a channel then the old MediaTV Pro II.As I scanned my channels using the old MediaTV Pro II, the found freqencies were out of the lock-bandwith needed by the MediaTV Pro III.

Scanning the freqencies with MediaTV Pro III solved that problem.

Ziggo is also a little to blame as e.g. transponder on 578MHz is actually centered on 578.75MHz.
